TIE Corps Command Report
Weekly Report #89 – Submission date: November 23rd 2014
Introduction

Greetings,

A lot of progress has been made in the TIE Corps Pilot Manual review this week, which is a great step in bringing this very important tool up to date. Can’t really foresee when it will be complete, but I’m hoping it will be soon enough, so we can finally put this behind us.

After it’s completed, I hope that I, or whoever else is in charge of the TC in the future, manage to maintain the manual completely updated in real time. It’s not an easy task, but it’s certainly better than waiting several years to make a complete update again.

On the promotion front, we finally saw one of the most expected promotions of this fleet, as Captain Flelm was promoted to Major after 13 years in that rank! Excellent work, MAJ Flelm! Here’s to a much faster promotion to Lieutenant Colonel!

The sad news for the week are the removal from Sigma pilots CM Matthew Weeks and CM Ibram Gaunt, for being declared absent without leave. I hope they manage to find their way back home very soon.

MAJ Landon Cruise is organizing a future competition of the Pazaak Star Wars Card Game. Let him know who is interested in participating!

If 3 people recruit in a month the max award will be a IS-GR, if 2 recruiters IS-SR, and if only one pilot recruits an IS-BR will be the highest medal awarded.

The awards will look like this if a minimum of 3 members recruit during a month. Remember the award is downgraded if the minimum of 3 recruiters isn't met in a month.

If this goes well, we could see the competition upgraded in 2015 to award a IS-PR to the number one recruiter during 2015! That is all pilots. Time to get those recruits and grow the TIE Corps!
